snap fails to install after clean install on Haskell Platform 8.0.1

[kees Bleijenberg]

I removed everything from GHC from my windows 7 64 bits machine and installed the haskell platform 8.0.1. ghc  version 8.0.1, cabal version: 1.24.0.0.

Then i did cabal -v install snap and I get:

"C:\Users\kees\AppData\Roaming\cabal\bin\cpphs.exe" "--version"
